do these work with the S8? not really sure about it and i dont wanna mess up the phone

I'd be suspicious about that, cheapo from Ebay. Very likely ships from Hong Kong or Shenzhen.

From the description:
Works best with iPhones, Androids, Mac Laptops, and many more USB Powered devices

I know Mac laptops, i.e. Macbooks, are not USB powered. A phone should be OK though, provided it's safe and doesn't explode or electrocute you.
 
Assuming that you plug your cable into the USB port and not jam it into the 110v receptacle, it should work just fine. ;) My wife charges her S7 with one every day as well as a Samsung Tab and her iPod. They are very convenient. :)

what kind does she use though? Id be purchasing one for the kitchen just to test it out but dont wanna mess anything up lol
and with the note 8 coming my way not sure if this would work on it too! glad theyre working for you guys though! :)

That's the 15A model. You have to match the load rating for the existing receptacle (assuming that it's correct now). And don't forget the face plate, your old one probably won't fit.
 
How far is the commute?

190miles, plus or minus.

Replacing an outlet is pretty straightforward: cut the power to the outlet, remove the faceplate, undo two screws to pull out the outlet, unscrew the wires, reverse the process to install the new one.

yeah saw a couple of youtube videos, seems pretty straight forward, wonder why it isnt a more common thing to do around the house
 
Some people think a book will stop a bullet fired at point blank range. Some people also don't have many functioning brain cells. :rolleyes:
That's really sad but pretty stupid too. I do feel bad for the guy but honestly, how can you say 'OK, let's do this' and not think you're probably going to die? Ugh.
